Podcasts about Andromeda

LELEK — Croatia's Eurovision 2026 act — joined us for an on-stage interview at our Eurofan House x Wiwibloggs interview series in Vienna. The band, formed in 2024, consists of members Inka Večerina Perušić, Judita Štorga, Korina Olivia Rogić, Lara Brtan, and Marina Ramljak. They discuss their song "Andromeda" and its powerful message, which relates to the subjugation of women in the Balkans. They also detail their tattoos, which women wore to escape slavery. How did the group form? Who is the most emotional? And what's it been like meeting their Eurovision idols? We find out all of this and more. Interviewer: William Lee Adams  

Subscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupMost brands are quietly killing themselves with growth hacks. Swapping button colors, chasing this week's ROI, discounting to hit the number.Duncan, Strategy Lead at Pilothouse, makes the case that this is the worst creative strategy there is, and walks through what actually builds a brand that lasts.Duncan runs strategy at Pilothouse, where brand and performance are treated as one system instead of warring departments. He explains why Meta's Andromeda shift is quietly ending the era of high-volume AI slop creative, and what replaces it.What you will learn:Why the growth-hack mentality leads to a discount death spiral and erodes brand valueWhat Meta's Andromeda infrastructure changed, and why it forces advertisers toward thoughtful creative over high-frequency iterationHow to integrate brand and performance instead of picking oneWhy siloed agencies fight over attribution while the customer journey falls through the cracksThe one question to ask any agency before you hire them: "Where will growth come from this year?"Who this is for: DTC founders, brand and growth leads, and anyone choosing between agencies or trying to make brand and performance work together.What to steal: the agency-selection test. If a partner can only answer with optimizations, they are a vendor. If they can tell you where growth comes from this year, they are a strategist.Timestamps:00:00 Why Growth Hacking Is Breaking Brands03:00 Meta Andromeda Changed Creative Strategy06:00 The Problem With Optimizing Only for ROAS12:00 Building Customer Journeys Beyond Attribution20:00 Measuring Channels by Their Actual JobSubscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupAdvertise on DTC - https://dtcnews.link/advertiseWork with Pilothouse - https://www.pilothouse.co/?utm_source=AKNF619Follow us on Instagram & Twitter - @dtcnewsletterWatch this interview on YouTube - https://dtcnews.link/video

You can launch 100 ads... Meta's still only going to let 2 or 3 of them win. In this episode, we went down a deep rabbit hole on Meta's new Andromeda update to try and figure out why the mechanism keeps starving 97% of your creative. We also dive into what this actually means for media buyers and creative strategists. We get into why dumping more ad volume doesn't create more winners, why the algo is basically playing blackjack and doubling down after seeing a single card, and why "make organic content that works as an ad" just went from a nice-to-have to the entire game. Plus a real-time (slightly too honest) consulting session on whether to cut ad spend and go all-in on organic. ⚡ IN THIS EPISODE → Why only 2-3 ads ever carry your entire account — and the poll data that proves it → The 90-minute window quietly deciding which creative lives or dies → Why launching 100 ads at once is the worst thing you can do right now → The "drip feed vs. bulk post" debate — and why we both landed on the same answer → How a streetwear brand blew up with organic videos that secretly end in an ad ⏱ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 The 2-3 ads carrying your entire account 01:00 We polled 100+ marketers on how many ads actually win 03:00 The bell-curve math that should work... but doesn't 05:00 Inside Meta's Andromeda update: thousands of robots become five 06:00 The 90-minute gate and the "Lattice Zipper" nobody's talking about 07:00 Meta's playing blackjack — and doubling down blind on every hand 08:00 Why launching 100 ads gets 90 of them killed 10:00 Drip feed or bulk post?

In the past 12 months, I've watched more eight-figure coaches turn off their ads and close up shop than ever before. Meta's Andromeda update completely wiped them out. In this episode, I walk through five lessons from spending over $20 million on Facebook ads — including the one that 99% of coaches refuse to learn because it's not about ads at all. I break down why polished, agency-style ads are dead on Facebook (even though they work on YouTube), how Andromeda completely flipped the targeting game so your ad copy is now doing the job that interest stacking used to do, and why you need 50 ads running, not five. I also get into why most "ad problems" are actually offer problems in disguise — and a simple test you can run right now to find out if yours is one of them. If your cost per booked call keeps climbing and you've been blaming the algorithm, this episode will show you what's actually broken. "The ad sells the click. The offer sells everything else."

Send us Fan MailBefore you spend another dollar on paid ads, listen to this.Facebook and Instagram ads can feel like a mystery. One person swears they're the key to scaling your business. Someone else says they're a waste of money. Meanwhile, Meta keeps suggesting you boost your post, increase your budget and trust the process.  In today's episode, I'm joined by Samantha Fine, Meta Ads and Funnel Strategist, to talk about what's actually working when it comes to paid advertising and why so many business owners end up frustrated, overwhelmed and convinced that ads "don't work."We discuss:How Meta's platform has changed, including the growing role of AI, the Andromeda update and the shift from audience targeting to creative-led advertisingThe role your funnel plays in ad performance and conversionsHow to know if you're actually ready to invest in paid traffic and how oto set an ad budget based on your goalsWhy copying someone else's ad strategy rarely works If you've been wondering whether Meta Ads are worth it, why your results have changed or what needs to be in place before you spend any money on ads, this conversation will save you time, money and a whole lot of frustration.Links & References:Come network with us!

If you're a coach or expert, you probably think your biggest problem is client attraction. It's not. You have a trust problem. And you're leaking trust in three specific places in your funnel every single day. In this episode, I name all three, and show you exactly how to fix each one — including the second piece that almost everybody overlooks, which is the thing that makes people show up to your calls already trusting you. I break down why talking to everybody in your ads is the kiss of death under Facebook's new Andromeda system, what an authority masterclass actually needs to do (hint: it's not teaching), and why the industry-standard 15-20% close rate is a symptom of pitching instead of diagnosing. I also walk through the five specific belief shifts your masterclass needs to engineer before anyone ever books a call with you. If your cost per booked call keeps climbing and nothing you try seems to fix it, this episode will show you exactly where the breakdown is happening. "Being trustworthy isn't enough. You also have to sell and market in a way that builds trust at every step."

Doc Danny breaks down what changed with Meta ads in 2026 and why cash-based PT clinics need a completely different strategy than they used a few years ago.

Paid ads have changed. Here's what gym owners need to know to make them work in 2026.In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Two-Brain CEO John Franklin and founder Chris Cooper close out Marketing May with the paid ads funnel. You build this funnel last because it's the one that amplifies everything else.John explains why the old ads playbook is dead—Meta's Andromeda update changed how ads are targeted and delivered—and what that means for gym owners. Chris and John share why gym owners need to know how to run their own ads and understand their ad math, rather than just outsource to an ad agency. They walk through exactly how to create an effective ad campaign and even deliver two clear action steps to help you get started: one for gym owners who have never run an ad, and one for gym owners who are already running them and want better results.This is episode 4 of 4 in the Marketing May series.

Tom opens this week's webinar with updates from the Homesteading Life Conference in Missouri last week, where he met attendees and spoke alongside Doug and Stacy. He also reminds viewers that early bird pricing for the New Biology Experience at Polyface Farm ends on May 21st, 2026, and mentions that Cowan's Community Corner is continuing to grow as a place for connection and discussion.New Biology Experience link here.Sign up for C3 here.Highlights from this session include:-Tom reviews several “doomsday” science headlines predicting the destruction of Earth, including collisions with Andromeda, black holes, and the sun swallowing Earth, questioning the assumptions behind long-range scientific predictions.-A discussion of the “Boltzmann brain paradox,” where scientists speculate that memories and reality itself may be random illusions.-Tom answers a question about water testing, suggesting testing for contaminants such as pesticides, glyphosate, arsenic, and coliform bacteria.-A critique of the alpha-gal/tick narrative and Lyme disease theory, including comments on genetics, antibodies, and Borrelia.-A discussion of leukemia and white blood cells, where Tom frames elevated white blood cells as the body's response rather than the disease itself.-Tom explains why he prefers fermented dairy products like kefir over plain raw milk, emphasizing traditional practices and personal experience over nutrient analysis.-A discussion of high altitude and breathing, where Tom questions the oxygen explanation and references atmospheric charge differences.-Tom revisits his critique of genetics and hereditary disorders, arguing that genes coding for proteins remains an unproven assumption.-A discussion of artificial blue light and electromagnetic fields, emphasizing observational effects over reductionist explanations involving photons or melatonin.-Tom critiques the concept of gain-of-function research, arguing that virology relies on manipulated cell culture experiments rather than isolated viruses.-He closes with a discussion about fats and food quality, emphasizing whole food experience and traditional observations rather than isolated vitamins or nutrients.Support the showWebsites:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/Instagram: @TalkinTurkeywithTomFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTomCowan/Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/CivTSuEjw6Qp/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzxdc2o0Q_XZIPwo07XCrNg

Cam Cooksey shows up with the question every kid secretly wants to ask. Is space real? And if it is, what even is it? Lt Gen (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast pulls out a scale-of-the-universe chart and walks Cam from the size of a sunflower out to Andromeda, then all the way down to quarks and quantum strings. The takeaway: you are connected to all of it, top to bottom. From there the conversation gets philosophical in the best way. Kwast lays out the decision-making framework he teaches future leaders. Start with an opinion, hold it with humility, then test it against the facts. His own starting opinion is that there is one God who made an infinite universe so we could love, explore, and grow. They tackle time travel (probably possible, probably unwise), the early 90s vertical takeoff rocket technology that will let you fly New York to Singapore in 37 minutes, and the deep state lie that the planet is too full. The closer, from Cam, is the line of the episode. Before you try to figure out outer space, focus on inner space first.

Envoyez-moi un message.Pour aller plus loin :

During the 1960s, theorists like Jeremiah Ostriker used early computers to determine that spiral galaxies would be unstable and "fly apart" without a massive spherical halo of unseen matter. This theoretical need found concrete evidence through the pioneering work of Vera Rubin and Kent Ford. By observing the Andromeda galaxy, they discovered that rotational velocities did not diminish at the outer edges, a phenomenon called "flattening the curve." This proved that a significant amount of invisible mass must exist to provide the necessary gravity. To map this mass, modern astronomers use gravitational lensing, an effect predicted by Einstein where gravity bends light from distant objects. This work continues in Chile at the Vera Rubin Observatory, which is designed to map the distribution of dark matter across space and time. (2/8)2020 ESA EUCLID

In today's Daily Fix:The Steam Machine is presumably just around the corner, and the Steam Controller is out, but what about the Steam Deck 2? IGN spoke with Valve about their upcoming hardware projects, and they gave us a small, but meaningful update on the successor to the succesful Steam Deck. In other news, Tom Taylorsen, who voiced Ryder in Mass Effect Andromeda, blames EA for the game's chilly reception. Andromeda was released in somewhat of an unfinished state, with a plethora of bugs, and fans of the series were not kind to the game at launch. And finally, we take a look at the mechanics you can expect in Housemarque's latest title - SAROS.Presented by SAROS. Rated T for Teen #AD

What if I told you Facebook is secretly classifying your business right now — and based on that classification, they're deciding whether your ads get the red carpet or get buried? I went into our ads manager source code and found proof. In this episode, I break down Meta's hidden trust rating system, what I actually found in our code, and the massive algorithm change from early 2025 that's killing advertisers who haven't adapted. I walk through the four factors that influence your hidden trust classification (one of them your own customers might be doing to you right now), what I found when I uploaded our source code to Claude, and why the old playbook of running 2-3 winning ads and milking them for months is completely dead under Meta's new AI engine called Andromeda. I also give you three strategies you can implement today — plus a way to check your own source code and see what Meta's saying about your account behind the scenes. And I tie it all back to the bigger picture: we're in a trust recession, and Meta's system is just asking the same question your prospects are asking — do you actually deliver on what you promise? "The advertisers getting killed right now are running 2024 playbooks in a 2026 world."
